I table particulars of proposed additional expenditure and seek leave to move a motion to refer the documents to legislative and general purpose standing committees.

Leave granted.

I move:

That:

(a)
the documents I have just tabled, together with the final budget outcome 2009-10 tabled on 26 October 2010 and the Issues from the advances under the annual Appropriation Acts for 2009-10 tabled on 17 November 2010, be referred to committees for examination and report; and
(b)
consideration of the Issues from the advances under the annual Appropriation Acts in committee of the whole be made an order of the day for the day on which committees report on their examination of the additional estimates.

Question agreed to.
